Special Guest: Ja, Panik

Known for their unique fusion of indie rock and experimental elements, Austrian band Ja, Panik will perform as special guest.

With almost two decades of band history and seven albums, Ja, Panik have cultivated a style that, despite its many facets, always has its very own aesthetic that can be traced back to this very band and firmly anchors them in the Austrian music scene.

As the gang from Burgenland who have played their way into all our hearts since "The Angst And The Money" (2009) at the latest.
